BUCHAREST. (WNS)—Sail-
ing from the Black Sea port of
Magnolia, the steamer Mamml,
with 500 Jewish refugees aboard,
all from Germany, left for an
unknown destination. It is be-
lieved that the ship, flying the
Panamanian flag, will attempt to
disembark the passengers in Pal-
estine or somewhere on the Af-
rican coast. The Greek steamer
Aghios Nicolaos, however, woo
prevented from leaving the same
port with its 662 refugee pas-
sengers. All were sent back to
Constanza where many had been
waiting at least three months
for an opportunity to emigrate.
Among the refugees were 152
Jews who had escaped from the
Nazi concentration camp at
Dachau. It was reported that an-
proximately 1,300 refugees were
waiting on three river boats be-
tween the ports of Tulcea and
Sulinu on the Danube River,
waiting for permission to con-
tinue the trip to the Black Sea. It

refugees are bound for Shanghai.

Round Table will also act as a
clearing house and discussion
center for any charges of intol-

the attention of the member or-

"It is hoped,' said Mr. Ken-

charges can be thoroughly ex-
amined and, in some instances,
dissipated before reaching the
critical stage."

The Round Table will also de-
velop tolerance programs for use
in public schools throughout the
country. A major stress will be
placed on these programs, ac-
cording to Mr. Kennedy, because
of the role the teacher plays in
guiding and influencing the lives
of children.

Roman Catholic Building Fund
Aided by Protestants
and Jews

STAMFORD, Conn. (Religious
News Service) — Assistance and
contributions given by non-
Catholics to the $250,000 St.
Joseph's Roman Catholic Hospital
Building Fund here received spe-
cial praise. Schuyler Merrit, for-
mer U. S. Congressman and
chairman of the sponsoring com-
mittee of the hospital building
fund, cited the "city-wide cam-
paign for a Catholic hospital in
w hich all faiths are lending sup-
port" as "an outstanding ex-
ample of Christianity at its best."
He commended the "persons of
all races and creeds who are tak-
ing part" for "their human sym-
pathy and good citizenship."
The invocation at the dinner
was offered by Rabbi David W.
Pearlman who praised the Catho-
lic church for sponsoring the
campaign for a new hospital.

NEWTON, Pa. (Religious New's

tians and Jews, in a commence-
ment address outlined a 10-point
program of objectives which, he
said, were basic to democracy in
the United States.
The ten goals of American

LONDON (WNS) — Sir Philip
Samson, first commissioner of
Public Works in the British Cab-
inet, and former undersecretary
for air, died here at the age of
50. His interests extended from
trade to art collections. He was
born in 1888, a direct descendant
of David Samson, wealthy Jewish
merchant of Bagdad, who moved
to Bombay early in the 19th
century and became a British
subject. During the World War
Sir Philip was secretary to Field
Marshal Haig. His conduct won
him three mentions in dispatches
and he was made a Companion
of the Order of St. Michael and
St. George. When the Baldwin
Cabinet was formed in NC/V(411-
'3er,
1924, Sir Philip was ap-
pointed under-secretary for air.
When Neville Chamberlain be-
came Prime Minister in 1937,
he appointed Sih Philip first com-
missioner of works, a post he
held at the time of his death.

It's because of Baron Louis
Rothschild's love for en Aryan
baroness, whom the Nazis threaten
to hold as a hostage if he tries to
recover some of the $21,000,000
they took from his family, that
he dissuaded his relatives from
seizing German assets abroad to
compensate themselves.
